    • The Royals could have acquired Jose Altuve for Eric Hosmer
    Another of baseball’s what-ifs. | Troy Taormina-Imagn Images Dayton Moore made right call in 2013. One key rule in the legal profession that took me a while to learn is that sometimes the best case is the one you don’t take. Based on news yesterday, it seems like that holds up true for major league general managers, too: sometimes the best move is the one you don’t make. To catch you up, i...2025
